==Displaying on a customised web page==
If you understand HTML table syntax, the [[Webtag]] ''<#snowdepth>'' can be inserted on a ( for example the ''todayT.htm'') web template (see [[Customised templates]]) to display the snow depth (updating at time set in [[Cumulus.ini]] as explained above. If you understand JavaScript and HTML, you can arrange to upload a background with a scale on which the script can use ''<#snowdepth>'' to overlay the correct depth as a white blanket for example. The script would have similarities to the current part of the script provided with Cumulus that plots rainfall as a bar chart. If you are using MX some other web tags can be used too.
Some sites use the ''current conditions'' feature in Cumulus 1 (optional box on main screen, plus ability to create a file that is deleted on use - see Cumulus help) to display further snow information.
Some sites using Cumulus and updating databases as input for creating pages using PHP do manage to display other information from the diary on their web sites (search the support forum for mentions of snow).
